Hi,
concerning your installing problems of 2.0.9 version on Ubuntu.
I have 2.0.9 on Ubuntu. Apparently officially 2.0.9 will be made available in
the next Ubuntu release (dapper), as you can find it in the repositories of
dapper. I find it strange they don't allow it to be upgraded for breezy users,
as this is more like bug fixes. Perhaps they don't know this and think this is
really another version?
To get 2.0.9 on breezy (5.10):
1/get alien: sudo apt-get install alien
2/get the rpm on the gramps website: gramps.rpm
3/run: sudo alien gramps.rpm
this creates gramps.deb
4/upgrade the present 2.0.8 version: sudo dpkg -i gramps-RC.deb
Under no circumstance remove 2.0.8. The rpm pakkage contains no info on gconf
and such, so you only get a working 2.0.9 by upgrading like this.
Check if it worked: See with Synaptic/Adept that gramps now is package
2.0.9. In
case of problems: remove the package: sudo dpkg -r gramps, and reinstall with
Synaptic/Adept the 2.0.8 version.
Of course, copy your gramps database to a backup file for extra savety.
Benny.
